Beyond the apprenticeship of one of the two working languages of the United Nations,
to be a student or member of Alliance Française also signifies bringing moral and eventually financial support in any sincere or unselfish case, to a set of ideas driven by a language used by more than 500 million persons, in 49 countries on the 5 continents. Today, French is much more than a tool for the economical, political or cultural promotion of France. It supports universal concepts of unity, solidarity, diversity and liberty brought about by all the supporters of a free world.

In this way, a little more than 100 persons sharing these ideals are presently members of
Alliance Française in St.Kitts and Nevis, including the essential part of the French community
living on the island.


Why a subscription fee?

To ensure the financing of the Association and the continuation of the mission. The revenue from
the subscription is the main source of financing for the Alliance after the subvention from the
French government and the revenue coming from the class registration fees.
